bugzilla-tool/commit-queue should run new tests first (as well as in their normal place) This would allow us to fail even faster than --exit-after-N-failures currently does. Say we add a new test "D". The test order in this mode would be: D, A, B, C, D, E, F D is run twice (which tests to make sure that the test is properly idempotent w/ respect to the test results and allows us to detect the most likely failure as early as possible.) I'd be curious if others think this is a good idea. The same option could be used on the buildbots as well if desired.
